HPE Smart Array P204i-b SR gen10

[Ilbis Insfran]

Hello. I have a BL460c Gen10 server with a P204i-b SR Gen10 smart array running VMware 7.0. I need to install driver 70.4600.0.115, but I can't find any information on the recommended firmware for this driver. In the HPE Support Center, I see that the latest firmware version supported by the P204i-b smart array is 4.11. This smart array model no longer appears as supported in higher versions. Could you help me by sharing some information on this?

Hi @Ilbis Insfran 

On any HPE ProLiant server running VMware ESXi 6.5, VMware ESXi 6.7 or VMware ESXi 7.0, and configured with any of the following HPE Smart Array SR Gen10 Controllers or HPE SmartRAID Gen10 Plus Controllers with smartpqi driver version 65.4054.2.118, 67.4054.2.118, or 70.4054.2.118.

The bundle file is for updating the HPE ProLiant Smart Array and Smart RAID driver when creating custom install images with VMware ESXi 7.0.
